Timekettle, the Pasadena, CA based tech startup, has announced that their Kickstarter campaign is now live and running for the WT2 Real time Earphone Translator project. WT2 translator makes use of cutting-edge technology to provide a smooth experience to every day consumers. Face to face foreign language conversations can become natural, fluent and hands-free with WT2 real time earphone translator.

“We are delighted to introduce the most revolutionary translator to date – the WT2 real time earphone translator that can translate languages in near real time,” says the spokesperson for Timekettle. “We believe that language is beautiful and fascinating and hence should not be frustrating merely because two persons are conversing in different languages. The WT2 translator has a translating earphone that allows natural and hands-free communication between individuals using different languages and enabled by two earphones and one app.”

Many individuals traveling to an alien country often report frustrating experiences when there are two speakers conversing in two different languages. Being stuck in an unknown place that does not speak a familiar language can be a hugely frustrating experience as it can create major communication issues. The WT2 real time earphone translator has been designed to deal with this problem.

WT2 comes with a customized charging case. The system includes two earphones and one app. The earphones can provide long-term, hands-free foreign language communication. Travelers can smoothly and effortlessly immerse themselves in the local culture while traveling in a country that speaks a language that they are not conversant with. WT2 can help them express build more meaningful connections as they can converse easily with the people they meet.
